Legends attends the Triathlon Scotland Conference in Stirling

I was delighted to attend the Triathlon Scotland Coaching and Volunteering Conference in Stirling at the weekend.

The Conference was launched by David Somerville from Judo Scotland who shared his experience and insights both as a judo player and now as National High-Performance coach. The man behind Scotland’s 13 Judo medals at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.

Joy Johnson – surely a contender for the original Joy of Sport!

The remarkable Joy Johnson – surely a contender for the original Joy of Sport! – started running at the age of 59. She went on to run three marathons a year and completed the New York City marathon 25 consecutive times. Confirmation that you are never too old to take up new activities.

Joy always ran with a bow in her hair and followed a disciplined routine training at 4am daily which she enjoyed. Despite falling and cutting her head around mile 20 she completed her final New York marathon on 3 November 2013.

Orienteering is a truly international sport

On 12 and 13 October Race the Castles, an International Orienteering Festival, staged a range of wonderful competitions in and around Edinburgh Castle and Stirling Castle as part of the build-up to the World Orienteering Championships which will be based in the Inverness area from 1-7 August 2015.

Competitors came from 26 countries and around 1,000 orienteers of all abilities took part.

Legends Promotional Products attends the Ryder Cup at Gleneagles

I was lucky enough to attend the Ryder Cup for one day at Gleneagles last week.

What a fabulous experience at a world-class venue set against a stunning backdrop. From the moment I arrived at the Park & Ride at McDiarmid Park at around 6.30am until I returned some 12 hours later the experience was wonderful. And it certainly helped that Europe played very well and the weather was most kind!
